Lowest JDK version and multi OS support..!!!

Post by reji » Tue Oct 22, 2002 7:21 am

Hi,

1. What is the lowest version of JRE which can be used with JFreeChart?


2. Does anybody have tested JFreeChart with Solaris Ver 5.8 ? Any problems while using Redhat 7.3 ?


regards,

reji

The main requirement for JFreeChart is Java2D which was introduced in JRE/JDK 1.2. I'm now developing with JDK 1.3, so it is possible that some 1.3 features have crept in, but I'm not aware of them. I don't have a JDK 1.2 handy, but if someone wants to try compiling JFreeChart with JDK 1.2, I'll be happy to help resolve any problems that arise.

I'm not sure about either of those, although I run JFreeChart successfully using both the IBM (1.3) and Sun (1.3 and 1.4) JREs, on SuSE Linux 8.0.

I'm using jfreechart with Solaris 5.8. Works fine, just remember to use a 1.4 JDK and set headless to true.
